Amazing location

Long, Fay - 23/10/2025

5

Fantastic campsite. Easy to find. Amazing views. Excellent washroom/showers facilities. Very clean too. Lakeside site so great for access to the lake for paddle boarding/kayaking/wild swimming etc. dog friendly. Nice walk into bala. A great location to set up base to explore Eryri from but also lovely enough to just stay put and enjoy the views and lake for a few days. Would definitely recommend and stay there again.

Lovely Gem of a Campsite

Lewis, Sam - 16/10/2025

5

Lovely campsite, we have been twice and plan to book again for next year. Ideal for paddle boarding and kayaking, Campsite is right next to lake so you can get straight out of bed and onto the lake. Facilities are clean and tidy, the site its self is immaculate. Staff are really helpful. Easy access into the site for any one with a larger motorhome 8m. This site gets booked up quickly for weekend so book early to avoid disappointment. 5 stars from me

Superb location

Grant, Kerensa - 06/10/2025

It probably helped that we had good weather, but the site is wonderful and the lake is a beautiful backdrop. You can walk into Bala along a well paved path. The little shop had good supplies, even though it was the end of season. The facilities were clean and well maintained and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
